Would PRP work for me? (photos)

Question

Hi, Since 10-SEP-2018 i started using Minoxidil 5% and Finasteride 1mg and i got better results so 2 days back i stopped only finasteride. Below things i noticed 1 month back. 1.The hair in vertex and front is growing slow compared to hair in sides. 2.I got some baby hair growing at right side of my front and it has been 1 month i noticed it but not growing further. So i would like to know Does PRP make baby hair and other hair growing slow to grow thick and normally like other hair?

Hello,
Yes you can also get prp treatment done. Try to get it every 2-3 months to see the benefits. It is a very effective treatment

In our practice we refer to PRP as ""liquid gold"" because it provides healing and rejuvenation and is a natural way to improve the appearance of your skin. Platelet-rich plasma is a high concentrate of protein derived from the blood; blood is drawn from the patient and placed in a tube that, once spun in a centrifuge, separates natural growth factors and stem cells from red blood cells. In addition to helping you maintain a fresh, youthful appearance, PRP can address localized conditions such as acne, wrinkles, cellulite, scars, and sun damage, and it's great when used in conjunction with lasers, radiofrequency devices, and microneedling treatments.
The Vampire Facial uses PRP and stem cells to improve complexion, texture, and fine lines and wrinkles. When combined with lasers and radiofrequency treatments, it can also address scars, pores, and pigmentation.
I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an experienced cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

PRP will definitely help you regrow you Hair. It will stop the miniaturization of your hair follicles and thicken the follicles.

Hi Mr.Santhosh, Thank you for the question and pictures. As far as hair is concerned, Multiple modalities are recommended to see improvement in hair growth. Minoxidil alone is not sufficient. Hence PRP is recommended. You need to use a DHT blocker which will enhance the results of PRP. Good luck.

PRP can decrease shedding, increase the diameter  ( approximately 30%) of existing growing hairs and increase hair regrowth. It takes hairs that are in the resting phase and puts them into the growth phase.
